¿ªÔÆÌåÓý?
First of all I'd like to say hello to all the
members of the list: been reading for some time
but this is my first mailing.
?
I recently bought a C-3 which is not perfect but is
in any case? w o n d e r f u l.
I've worked with an XB-1 and an XK-2 and I consider
the latter an excellent clone: in my opinion, the fundamental
difference?between the XK-2 and a real tone wheel?is mostly noted
on?pads, holding chords. I tried?XK-2 through a Leslie 760 and?I
personally?believe that the result isn't much better, rather
poor.
?
As for Casey's question regarding the?pedal,
the Hammond expression pedal is surely better than?normal midi pedals but
perhaps not that better so as to justify its high cost.
?
However I'd like to talk about the B4 which in my
opinion is the best reproduction of?the tone wheel available today and,
especially on pads, it doesn't make you regret the real tone wheel. I truly
recommend all Hammondites purchase the software (which is rather economical: I
believe the demo may be downloaded free), especially those who were asking
for?drawbar settings. It has many presets including Gimme some Lovin', a
Whiter Shade of Pale, all very similar.
What is missing is an adequate midi
controller.
Is there anyone out there able to transform (or
manufacture) a B-3 or C-3 console into a B4?midi
controller??
ciao
Maurizio
